Default targa top

Is $700.00 a good price for a targa top in perfect condition?

I bought one last fall off of the big auction site for $625, mint Lemans Blue. Seller quoted $50 shipping, AZ to TX. It ended up costing HIM $115, UPS. Check before you buy if you'll be shipping.

Considering the cost of a new one from GM, it's not a bad price, but I'd say it is still on the high side. Might want to try and get the price lower.
